We really are looking forward to this cooperation with Dentsu Webchutney in the hope to have an impact for the development of tennis and red clay courts in India”.

Dentsu Webchutney VP Tanvi Jain said that its selection underlined the agency’s credentials as the leading 360-degree digital marketing solutions provider in India. “We are honoured to partner with a sporting event as prestigious and global as the French Open.”
